Three arrested in connection with a hijacking and kidnapping case in Brooklyn on Christmas Day
Three suspects were arrested in connection with a hijacking and kidnapping case in Brooklyn on Christmas Day.
Cape Town Traffic Services
spokesperson, Kevin Jacobs, said Highway Patrol officers stopped a white Toyota
Yaris on the N1 at Marine Drive, as the car was not displaying a rear number
plate, and the automatic number plate recognition system in the Highway Patrol
vehicles indicated that the vehicle was being driven with false number plates.
‘’Further investigations
revealed that the vehicle was stolen. The suspects were positively identified
by the victim at Maitland SAPS, as the suspects involved in her hijacking and
kidnapping on Christmas Day,’’ he said.
Jacobs said the suspects aged
33, 38 and 45 were found in possession of computers, numerous cellphones, a
number of vehicle keys and remotes, as
well as an array of vehicle number plates.
They have been charged with
hijacking, kidnapping, the possession of a stolen vehicle and displaying false
number plates, along with a number of traffic offences.
